Painful Love (Painful Love)

Meeting Old Friends

Today Bimantara will meet with his schoolmates first when they are both still in High School (Upper High School). He asked Leo to come to a cafe to discuss their cooperation plan related to the business that the former CEO of Danendra Group wants to open.

"All the housework I've done. Lunch for you was prepared at the dinner table. So, if you want to eat stay you just angelin," said Bimantara while wearing a jacket to dispel the wind that will enter the body when driving.

Emma who was cutting her fingernails on the long sofa took a quick glance. Both eyebrows furrowed with eyes full of question marks. "Where do you want to go so neat? Must be meeting your stupid ex-wife, right?" scowl the woman with a cynical tone of speech. The look in his eyes also rained sharply on the figure in front of him.

Instantly the emotions in Bimantara were turbulent hearing the words of Emma. The man's breathing roar was hunting along with jaws protruding outward. The former CEO of a famous company in the country does not accept if someone who has been a friend of his life is insulted in plain sight.

Bimantara clenched his palms tightly. Regulating his breath eased the stifled emotions within him. It was like yelling at the wife to stop the speech that seemed to corner Tsamara, but again and again the presence of a baby in the womb Emma made the man silenced and swallowed disappointment at the attitude of his beloved wife.

"Never keep thinking negatively, pity the baby in your womb!" bimantara said after being able to control his emotions. "Today I have an appointment with Leo, my old schoolmate. I plan to invite him to cooperate. It just so happened that he wanted to open a business. So I figured why we didn't cooperate anyway me and him have the same goal."

Emma looks mangosteen. "I think I want to meet with the most beautiful ex," he said casually regardless of how Bimantara feels at this time. "Yes, if you want to go, then go now. But remember one thing, if your efforts succeed do not forget to return my son's savings. I don't want it when my baby is born, we're short of money. Understood?" he said while continuing his activities that had been delayed.

Bimantara sighed softly. "Without you remind me I already know, Emma." The man tidied up the small circular bag on the shoulder and glanced at the wall clock in the room. "I'm leaving now. Remember to have lunch and take vitamins."

Bimantara stepped away leaving Emma who seemed very busy with her work.

As the man was about to approach the doorway, Emma said in a tight tone. "Basic baffles! It's still a lot of chatter!"

Bimantara's footsteps stopped and his palms hardened again to show smooth muscles protruding on the back of the hand. Control yourself, Bima. Don't get emotional!

Hold a long breath and hold it inside the chest cavity before blushing out. "I'll go first."

Arriving at the terrace of the house, Bimantara looked back. He noticed Emma who still seemed busy with her work, there was no intention at all from the woman to let go. Never mind kissing the back of the hand, saying goodbye and asking the man to come home safely, never did Emma.

In this situation somehow Bimantara so remembered the memories while still married to Tsamara. The beautiful woman and the owner of almond eyes always ushered in his departure every time the former CEO was about to leave for the office. Giving a sweet smile and kissing the back of the hand has always been a mandatory routine for Tsamara. However, when she married Emma, everything changed instantly.

"Hi, Bro! How are you?" Leo, one of Bimantara's schoolmates got up from the chair, then greeted and patted Bimantara's back gently.

Bimantara did the same thing Leo did to him. "Good news. You alone, how?"

"That once the CEO of Danendra Group took me to meet, what's wrong?" leo asked as soon as they sat down in the chair." The man did not know that Bimantara is no longer the CEO of the company. He thought Bimantara's life was still the same as before, living a luxurious life with the wealth of both parents.

After getting permission from Emma, taking some savings for their child's future, Bimantara immediately sought information about Leo, one of his friends who had been so tenacious in the business world. Thanks to his expertise, Bimantara is interested in inviting Leo to work together to build their business from scratch. Yes who knows his business is successful and he does not have to bother looking for a job in the company.

"Look, I had a little problem with my Papa that made me have to get out of the house and give up all the facilities my parents gave me. For the past three months I've been looking for a job at a company that has worked with Papa's company, but none of them would accept me."

"You know for yourself, every day we must spend money to meet daily needs. No matter how much our savings money in the bank, if it is used continuously without any income at all then over time it will run out too. Therefore, I invite you to meet. I happen to hear from school friends that you are also trying to open a business. That's why I invite you to meet, to discuss our cooperation plan," said Bimantara at length, explaining the purpose and purpose of inviting Leo to meet.

Leo sipped the coffee he had ordered. "Ooh .. so. It's true that I'm trying to open a new business. However, because of constrained funds so that until now has not been realized. Business ideas and concepts are already there, just wait for a donor just can walk."

High-statured men put the coffee cup back on the plate, then change the sitting position to be firm. "So you want to work with me, Bim?" ask Leo to confirm what he heard just now.

Bimantara nodded quickly. "really. I have a little savings from selling my apartment. Good for business capital."

Unwittingly Bimantara, a thin smile was painted on Leo's face. "Well .. what a coincidence. You came at the right time" he said with a big smile.

"OK, if you want that. I am willing to cooperate with you. Tomorrow or the day after we meet again, discussing the type of business, ideas and concepts that we will build. How's it?"

Bimantara enthusiastically replied, "Okay. You tell me when and where we met."

Leo's thumb was lifted into the air. "Okay, ready!"
